Hoestly I do not care about the main dudes at all. They are uninteresting and the blonde one is rude and obsessive. I love getting to see the couple from the recent chapters and the girls potential couple! I don't get why everyone misses the main pair because they honestly weren't at all interesting to me. To me the blonde comes off as pushy and the other an air head, in other words, really old style couple trope. If anyone that likes the main pair reads this I'd actually really like to hear your thoughts because so far I can't get interested in them and it kind of feels like the author wrote them initially then as she kept going ended up making more interesting couples and that might be why they get a lot of chapters, at least so far. But idk
I feel the same about the main couple. but then again I feel the girls in this manhue are also a "trope" so....mostly I like the one's that have one sided love cause I feel they more fun character's then the "main" characters XD
Everyone is shitting on Kairi and I just gotta say...can you stop to think about it for a second? That girl made him feel shameful for his feelings at a young age, its actually a very traumatic event for a child. He isn't a manwhore, he's try to cope with the guilt and shame he feels for his attraction to another boy. The subconscious works in weird ways and while he is making bad choices by betraying Wataru as kids....its honestly expected for children when made to feel they did something wrong. Even as adults we hate feelings we've done something wrong and being yelled at like something normal was creepy or disgusting...
I totally agree with it !!!!!!!!!
Weird I thought this would all be fairly obvious but I guess some readers haven't known closeted, self hating individuals like Kairi (even then some critical thinking should fill in the blanks). There's so many guys like him out there especially in societies that look down on homosexuality.
Agreed!!! I mean c’mon, it’s already hard enough to come out as lgtbq+ but at such a young age tell you that it’s disgusting is super traumatic. And his sister said that. HIS SISTER. Kids naturally and most of the time follow their family and look to them for guidance and to learn, so when his sister said those things then it’s not surprising that he’s gonna build defensive walls and try to force himself to be “normal” according to his sister.
And kids are most of the time cowardly and follow what older kids do and say anyway. I mean the kids in the beginning were all proud about ejaculating and knowing about sexual stuff because they felt like they were adults. Basically kids are idiots and weak sometimes, and it carries into their adult lives most of the time if Those around them don’t accept them. Smh. And accepting that trauma and getting past it isn’t easy. We can only say that it’s easy because you’re not in that position.
I mean is it frustrating to see? Hell the fuck yeah, but let’s be realistic. He’s definitely a dick for blaming his homosexuality the other kid but he’s obviously regretful. Now I do hope that he gets a RUDE ass wake up call tho bc the other guy has been waiting for him so patiently and he’s such a ball of sweetness.
What the heck!? I thought Gyoon liked that other guy....whats going on here
maybe his an escort or just a hoe?
im curious as well.
Well....

I can't read this right now. I can't until way more chapters come out. Its just so graphic and traumatizing. I honestly feel sick seeing what happened to these kids, specifically this kid I have loved for years. I honestly feel like crying. I mean from the very beginning it was insinuated that they were tortured and raped but just having to see more details of it is just more than I can take right now. I seriously feel like crying. Is anyone else really freaking out over this??? Like we knew this was coming but its still just too hard for me to look at right now
Yeah i'm legit crying right now ┗( T﹏T )┛ even tho I know this will be coming eventually
Every copy belongs in the MoMA. This series is a masterpiece.
I don't even know what happened yet but I wanna beat the shit out of Nauen's friend's boyfriend from middle school
What the fuck author. You make him be sweet, gentle, and considerate like they're whole lives and NOW he fucking jumps him in a VERY rapey looking scene??? Seriously wtf that seemed so out of character and so out of place in this comic. Ugh. Just so disappointed.
Or does it? He had a lot of pent up frustration through-out many years and had tendencies to be violent/have a bad mouth when he got jealous as a kid, bullying the one he likes. He always acted to be all chill with it, but we did see some dark tendencies through-out the story with his thoughts who ended up "overcoming" him in this scenario. So I don't really think it's out of character, personally, it kind of makes sense. To me, at least!
He had a LOT of contradicting thoughts in this situation, as well, telling himself, his thoughts of taking advantage, to "be quiet" and telling himself he is the worst. I simply think it was the breaking point for him.
I get what you're saying because I followed that line of thinking at first too, but I think ultimately the authors in the bl genre are making mistakes when they make almost all their male characters out to be one angsty outburst away from becoming actual rapists or sexual assaulters. You don't just be friends with somebody since childhood and have feelings for them and then one day get frustrated and pin them down, threaten them, and then basically molest them. Its not giving guys any credit. I think manga authors in general have a problem with depicting guys as always trying to hold themselves back from jumping on somebody. You see it in bl and shoujo. Idk if its a japanese mentality about men and urges and control or victim blaming or WHAT but we all can't deny its a problem. Maybe they're trying to add in tensity or exaggerate in order to portray just how pent up or how much desire a character is dealing with, but for me it interrupts the story, flattens characters, and is just flat out unnatural. In this case he was often having conflicting thoughts of wanting to be important to the guy he liked, feeling frustrated that he didn't notice his feelings, and etc. He showed times where his thoughts got negative or a little dark but never like...rape or assault dark (at least to my memory, correct me if I'm wrong). And even if he has had thoughts of wanting to jump him or be with him sexually as many boys do, they don't tend to actually act on those thoughts. I just have a hard time believing that in the situation they're in he would suddenly just pin him like he did and start feeling him up. It just felt very unnatural to me.
In short, it's "yaoi logic strikes again". :)))
Thank you so so much por saying this. I was getting worried I'd be alone on how i felt about the current situation
I'm glad you feel the same! I think we all easily get used to certain ideas and stereotypes, both in the real world and fiction, and start to give those things too much credit, so sometimes we really need to question it to find out we're not alone in feeling something is wrong.
The artwork on the cover was misleading...I wanna read whatever that art is from
I thought the same, The comic itself was funny enough but the cover art was honestly what I came for
I want to kill that bastard with my own two hands. When he showed up at her door I actually said "run baby run!". Ugh, its just too much. I hope she's okay. Please author, I can't take it!!
